Streamlining Your PSA Selection

Navigating the vast array of Pressure Sensitive Adhesives (PSAs) can be daunting. To simplify your decision-making process, we’ve categorized our offerings based on construction, adhesive type, and service grade.

Adhesive Type:

Rubber: Ideal for short-term, general-purpose applications where cost is a primary concern. Offers high initial tack but may not be suitable for applications requiring chemical, temperature, or UV resistance.

Acrylic: Suitable for long-term applications where higher performance is required, including resistance to chemicals, temperatures, and UV light.

Butyl: Excels in low-temperature flexibility and boasts exceptional UV and moisture resistance. Suitable for long-term outdoor applications.

Construction:

Double-Coated Tape: Features a carrier coated on both sides with adhesive, providing stability, handling ease, and added thickness. Some specialized tapes have different adhesives on each side (differential double-coated tapes).

Transfer Tape: Consists of a single layer of adhesive without a carrier, often reinforced with scrim. Well-suited for irregular surfaces and applications requiring flexibility and stretching.

Service Grade:

Value: Economical options for cost-driven applications.

Mid-Grade: Offers a good balance of bond strength and cost, typically featuring heavier adhesive coat weights or thicker release liners.

Performance: Provides aggressive bonding on a wide variety of surfaces, ideal for more challenging applications

We offer a wide variety of PSA and flexibility in ordering, allowing you to choose from full adhesive rolls, narrow width tapes, or PSAs applied to foam sheets or rolls.
